Asian Cole Slaw Recipe
When I typically think of Asian cuisine I think of high fat buffet items that have been deep fried and covered in rich delicious sauces. It has been my goal to bring some of those Asian flavors into a healthier light within our menus. With summer here in full swing and barbecues happening every weekend I love taking the time to make delicious and satisfying dishes that don’t zap all of my daily calories. One of our family favorites is this Asian inspired Cole Slaw. With the core ingredients remaining the same, it is easy to add a few extra ingredients to make this a full meal in itself or to adapt for your families tastes. I hope you enjoy this dish as much as we do.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
